Major Parent problem

[Mrs. PBJ]

Ok so yall know I found my dad about 2 months ago then he asked me to potty train his dog for him and I sadi yes no problem come get her in one month. No big deal right no My step mom who is a great women just called and asked me to keep lucy for ever.

My delima is this I lvoe this dog she is everything I wanted. A female long hairs yada yada yada but she was never myne so of course I did not get to attachted. I am not one to normally so no to a animal but that is how we got in the situation we where in this time last year. I have said no amny times before. in this year for the fact of I cant do what I did last year.

So here is my problem Lucy or Echo. I been asked to keep both I love both they came into my home at the same time. I am attatched to both but Echo of course in a different way. Cause she is myne if it was a matter of keeping them both that would not be a issue. The issue is my apartment only allows 2 pets. Storm is considered a cage pet so he does not count.

How can I look at lucy and take her back to a house that never really wanted her in the first place. But how can I look at Echo and even think about finding her a home once the kittens are weined.

I have a problem and need some friendly and harsh advice.

Echo was yours in the first place, I'd offer Lucy back to you're stepmother and if she doesn't want her back then try to find her another home.

I'm a little lost...

Am I right here:
Phoenix
Echo
Storm
Lucy?

IMO, you committed to your guys first. Lucy was never part of the plan. If keeping her will cause you to be evicted and the other animals to lose their home, it is time to assist your parents in finding Lucy a home.

The other thing I'm wondering is whether your step mom and your dad are having a disagreement over the dog.

Whose dog is it really? I'd want to hear your dad agree to having Lucy rehomed before doing anything. He gave you the dog to keep for him, thus it is his orders that you act on.

Make sure that they are both actively involved in finding her a home, so no one can say that it wasn't their idea to rehome the dog (and blame you).

Just my $0.02

Well I have made the desision. I dont have time for another dog on top of phoenix is going on 3 and she does not play with lucy and honestly I went up stair and looked at Echo like why do I even have to think about it.

I think I am trying please my step mom and dad for them not me. I have helped people my whole life. In situations like this and got screwed in the end. I am tired of being everyones fall back just cause they think I wont say no but put my family in dire straights.

She is going back what is the first thing they tell you when you start fostering or saving animals you cant help them all. Storm has to be caged more offen she chase the cat. and she anoys phoenix she does not ft into our family and I am not trying to get another dog so soon after loosing bruiser. Pkus Echo is my baby girl well so is phoenix I dont need another mouth to feed right now. If I did I would have a second rabbit by now.

Thanks for the help I need to learn to say no
